Hi John,
just read about your search for the Laplands, they are at Llannon not Llanrhystud, as you leave Llannon village heading south there is a new small housing development on the rhs. immediately past this development is a small road, signposted to a hotel the name of which has slipped my memory, follow this road down to a small beach car park. There is a small stream on the rhs just as you turn into the car park ,this frequently has a Dipper feeding.
A new gate access to the coastal path leads from the car park into the first grassy field, this is where Bob and I had the birds two days ago but they are mobile and can be anywhere in the first five fields. Good luck if you try again.
